Default Silver GS, DISH type Wheel...Black or Polish?

i got a 00 Silver GS, i'm looking at a Dish style wheel. It has a high polish lip, and comes in either black face or Polish face.

Just wanted to see what you guys liked.

Thanks

Ray, I would say black but I think here, in America, very few people "understand" black wheels...

Too bad not enough manufactures offer a "titanium" or other "grey-ish" type center...I think that with a high polish lip looks nice on a silver car...and black cars...

So whatcha doin'? Your own car? Golts?

I will agree with Manaray that grey-ish and high polish lip looks great. I also like the gunmetal finish on Silver...

Black centers only look good good on clean black cars. I say clean as in clean no dirt and clean well done. Otherwise they make a car look dirty.
